ISSNIP Collaboration Day

Monday December 7, Langham Hotel, Melbourne

 

The ARC Research Network on ISSNIP is a network of researchers created in 2004 to address fundamental cross-disciplinary issues of sensor networks and Information Processing in large, complex, distributed interacting systems with direct applications in health, environment, security and infrastructure. It brings together distinguished Australian and International researchers from relevant disciplines to create an outstanding intellectual infrastructure.

The ISSNIP Collaboration Day is the annual meeting for ISSNIP and affiliated researchers to showcase current research programs, identify emerging areas and establish new collaborative links. This year the event is integrated into the ISSNIP 2009 program and all conference delegates are invited to participate in this prat of the conference program.

The Collaboration day will feature invited talks from leading international researchers including:

  • Prof. M. Palaniswami (University of Melbourne, Australia)
    • Opening & ISSNIP Research Network
  • Prof. Ron Johnstone (University of Queensland, Australia)
    • Smart Environmental Monitoring Analysis Technologies
  • Dr. Laurent Herault (CEA-LETI, France)
    • Development of a Future Internet - EU-Australian initiatives
  • Prof. Stuart Milner (University of Maryland, USA)
    • Next generation wireless networking technologies for sensor networks
  • Mr. Cal Anderson (RFIDAA, Australia)

  • Dr. Jorge Pereira (European Commission)
    • Aspects of Large Scale Sensor Networks and EU Engagement
  • Prof. Subhash Challa (NICTA/University of Melbourne)
    • University-Industry collaboration - SenSen Networks

This will be followed by a poster and demo session from ISSNIP research groups, including a presentation and demo from Dr Pubudu Pathirana Deakin University. This is a valuable opportunity to explore new research and collaboration opportunities and engage leading international experts.

The Collaboration Day program will be immediately followed by the conference opening speeches, the opening keynote address to be given by Prof David Karoly (The University of Melbourne, Australia) - Climate change science and solutions: The role of sensor networks for monitoring and mitigation.

The Conference Welcome Reception will be held in the Alto room following the day's program.
